•\[3] Have been receiving 2 or more OAMs at stable doses for the 12 weeks prior to Visit 1, with or without Lantus. Note: use and dose of oral agents in combination with insulin must be in accordance with the local product label.
•Patients taking metformin and who are found to have a contraindicated serum creatinine level (\=1\.4 mg/dL for females, \=1\.5 mg/dL for males, or based on country\-specific label) must be willing to discontinue use of metformin at randomization.
•Note: Sitagliptin is the only DPP\-IV inhibitor currently approved for use with insulin.
•If on two OAMs at study entry and there is a need to discontinue one of those agents due to country labeling requirements or clinical parameters, that patient would not meet entry criteria.
•\[4] Have an HbA1c \=7\.0% and \=11\.0% if insulin naïve; if previously on Lantus, then HbA1c \=11\.0%.

•\[11] Have used short\-acting glucagon like peptide (GLP\-1\) agonist (eg, exenatide) or long\-acting GLP\-1 agonist (eg, liraglutide) within the previous 90 days.
•\[12] Have used pramlintide (eg, Symlin®) within the previous 30 days.

•\[16] Are receiving chronic (lasting longer than 14 consecutive days) systemic glucocorticoid therapy at pharmacological doses (excluding topical, intra\-articular, intraocular, or inhaled preparations and physiologic replacement doses for adrenal deficiency) or have received such therapy within 4 weeks immediately preceding Visit 1\.
•\[17] Have obvious signs or symptoms, or laboratory evidence, of liver disease (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT]; or aspartate minotransferase \[AST] greater than 2\.5 times the upper limit of the reference range, as defined by the central laboratory); or albumin value remarkably above or below the normal reference range, as defined by the central laboratory.
